Description of the problem | The g35 coupe is experiencing what seems to be tire feathering. I started hearing loud growling sounds coming from the tires, it started at 11,500 miles and has gotten much much worse at 13,000 miles. Infiniti consumer affairs said... And i quote "there is nothing we can do for you," since there is no recall on the car. The dealerships are telling me that this is normal since it's a sports car, obviously these people don't know about the cars they service or basic auto mechanic info. They did admit that the tires are cupping, but are not doing anything about it. The sound is unbearable and infiniti don't want to admit that their cars have a problem that so many people are experiencing. Shame on them. *jb |
